Texas Wisdom

"If all you ever do is all you've ever done, then all you'll ever get is all you ever got."

-- Some Texas saying according to Thomas Friedman

Essentially what I was trying to say in Resolutions, but in a sentence. With good rhythm.

Resolutions

If your goal is to get an A, why is your goal in your next lecture to not fall asleep?

If your goal is to get promoted, why is your goal in your next presentation to not screw up?

If your goal is to fall in love, why are you trying to not get hurt?

If your goal is to change your life, why are you doing the same thing tomorrow?

Inauguration

So I'm in a house in Laos watching TV with a bunch of Americans, Germans and English travellers. We're watching the inauguration on BBC. We've been watching since 8.30, and its 11.50 now. We all have stuff planned early tomorrow morning but somehow we felt obliged to watch the damn thing.

Anyhoo, after listening to the reporters for about 2 hours now, finally, Mr O appears.

And theres a blackout.

What the fuck???
